Fourth-year BFA photographyMedium: 35 mm fi lm printed chemically/shot and printed digitally
I observe and document the everyday inter-action of families. I draw a comparison of family dynamics among the families photo-graphed, depicting those dynamics primarily through the use of space within a household and the direction and intent of gaze. I would like viewers to allow this sampling of family dynamics to inspire refl ection on their own defi nition of family.
Fourth-year BFA paintingMedium: oil paint, ink, oil pastels
I offer a visual interpretation of how I make sense of the world. As an individual with Asperger’s Syndrome, Attention Defi cit Hy-peractivity Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder, I experience diffi culty processing signals from my environment. To symbolize the resulting feeling of alienation, I have created two humanoid fi gures. I intend to leave the viewer with an understanding of the lived experience of an individual with atypical neurology.
